    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    From memory I was on 14.3 before. I was surprised to see the much better grey blobs rendered in the download info notes because no-one else had mentioned this AFAIK. I'll take a look after download and see what improvement.

    Just downloading 14.8 now and it says minor fixes but I was thrilled to see 'HD, 3D Park Assist rendered images'. I'll be interested to see the difference from the grey blobs we had before.

    I think you're being a bit tough on Elon. After all, the shareholders are making him fight for his AUD $84.9 billion bonus and that's making him very cranky.

    I've enagaged lawyers in an attempt to recover FSD cost (Australian owner)

    The definition of stupidity is doing the same things over and over and expecting different outcomes.

    I don't agree. He just lives on a different planet to most of us.

    Problem is they will probably introduce it for the Y in the next update or so?

    My understanding with 2024.14.3 is that Auto boot opening is included. See below... Stand still behind your trunk with Phone Key unobstructed, listen for the chimes, and the trunk will open on its own. To enable this feature, go to your vehicle settings > Locks > Hands-Free Trunk.

    Holy Cow! I had no idea you could go through roundabouts with TACC on. Each time I approach a roundabout with TACC it goes in so quickly with no apparent attempt to brake at all so I chicken out? Maybe I should harden up and give it a go. I will however, bring my Will up to date before doing so LOL.

    I've enagaged lawyers in an attempt to recover FSD cost (Australian owner)

    There's no doubt Elon is the 'great disruptor' of our time. If it wasn't for him the Prius hybrid would still be the 'green' way of the future. I can cut him some slack because he's way ahead of the curve with automobile technology and his thought process is years ahead of where we currently...

    Superchargers in Australia

    I wonder... As part of his sacking the supercharger team Musk reckons he's going to continue the expansion of the supercharger network. To me it makes good sense to be increasing the number of chargers at existing sites at this stage rather than expanding into new sites. There's little to no...

    I've enagaged lawyers in an attempt to recover FSD cost (Australian owner)

    I have no idea why (and how) Tesla keep selling FSD as an (expensive) option. It is disingenuous and really should be unlawful in Australia whilst it remains illegal to use. Even Enhanced Autopilot isn't functional at present. Luckily I didn't fall into that trap but a good friend did and is...

    Thanks Tam. Unfortunately FSD isn't on the table for Australia at this time (and maybe never will be).

    Hardware 4 in Australia and how to set home for a house in an estate.

    Hi again, Firstly, I was wondering is new 3's and Y's delivered to Australia have the new HW4? And if they do, is there a marked improvement in the vehicles? Secondly, we live on a gated estate on a golf course in Noosa Heads. I'm trying to set 'Home' as my address but it defaults to an address...

    New Model 3 Performance news

    Hmmm! I LOVE regen braking and one pedal driving. Our MYLR is 10 months old and there isn't a skerrik of brake dust on any of the wheels. Our old Benz had silver mag wheels and after a couple of weeks driving they were black on the inside and just dirty on the outside.

    I'm not sure about anyone else but I find this 'Software Updates' thread extremely difficult. There seems to be a hundred different software versions out at any given time and a hundred different things being updated. Some here, some there, some not at all. Matrix headlights etc here, but not...

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    I note many people use Waze for warnings. I used Waze extensively before the Tesla Y (because Benz had Apple carplay) but to have to use a 3rd party App for something like this is in our Tesla ludicrous.

    We hired 3 KIA Sorento's for our drive yourself holiday in NZ recently. All 3 reported audibly on speed cameras and the like. But, if you asked me which car is better to drive, the decisions isn't even close. Out MYLR is streets ahead in almost every other aspect. Ypu'd think it wasn't too hard...

    Hi mate, congrats on your new S that's on the way. The S is what I wanted too but when I attempted to order last April they were already unavailable in RHD. How did you get yours?

    TACC is handy if you want to look for your sunglasses and put them on or maybe take a drink from your water bottle. That's about the limit of it around town IMHO.

    To be fair, the wipers (auto) in our old 2017 E Class Benz were just as good but it had a dedicated rain sensor on the windshield. Maybe Tesla should go that way (Ha!)

    It seems inconceivable, although I'm not doubting what you say, that the same update in the same vehicle can produce varying conditions. What on earth is going on?

    Model 3 RWD vs Long Range Comparison

    That's my point. I reckon you paid almost $3K for the upgrades wheels (as did I) but at least Tesla had to fit the upgraded wheels whereas the upgraded performance is a software switch.
